| Text | In this podcast, the phrase "name it" is an expression used to ask a person to say what he or she wants with the understanding that one will help him or her get it: "I told you that you could have anything you wanted for your birthday, so just name it." The phrase "to name names" means to say who did something wrong or to say who was involved in a bad situation: "Tammie knows who stole the money, but she is scared to name names." The phrase "to name the date" means to pick a date for a wedding: "Congratulations on your engagement! Have you named the date yet?" Finally, the phrase "to name a few" is used after listing a few things to show that one could list many other things, too: "He likes basketball, baseball, football, and volleyball, to name a few." |
